===Cardinal numerals===

Different cardinal numerals are declined differently, and have various effects on the noun depending on the final digits of the numeral:

*Cardinal numerals one and two, and those ending in "1" or "2", are declined as adjectives. The noun is singular (and agrees in case) for numbers ending in ''ahod'', and the noun is dual for numbers ending in ''fla''.

Line 586:

**Cardinals that end in ''šolaf'' (3) through ''cés'' (9) or in ''hošor'' (10-19) are declined like feminine singular nouns in adnominal position (''Jef šolafa ęsáje'' 'There are three people') and like masculine singular nouns in nominal position (''Jef šolaf'' 'There are three').

**Cardinals that end in ''qošory'' (20), ''šolafy'' (30), ..., ''césy'' (90) are declined as masculine plural nouns.

**Units such as ''sefor'' (0), ''meja'' (100), ''olop'' (1000), 'miljón'', etc. are declined as ordinary nouns, taking dual and plural as necessary.
